The posting

Job Title: Primary Lead

Location: Esteem South Academy

Grade/Scale: Teacher Pay Scale - MPS / UPS plus SEN1 (£2,884 per annum) and TLR2a (£3,650 per annum)

Contract: 32.5 hours per week

We are looking to recruit an experienced and inspiring primary Teacher to join our academy to lead our primary team. The staffing team is small compared to a mainstream school, and there are currently three classes that are taught via ‘stage’ and not age. Classes will be small and may have up to 5 pupils in each. We plan to extend our primary offer further from January 2027. The post will suit an experienced teacher or leader who is willing to be flexible to meet the needs of the pupils with innovative adaptive teaching. All of our pupils have SEND. We review our offer depending on pupil numbers and their needs, and we make frequent changes to ensure that the site can meet the needs of the pupils that are on roll. Candidates will need to have appreciation for the whole site and be a positive team player. We welcome applications from candidates who are able to teach engaging and inspiring lessons to challenging and disengaged primary pupils. This role will involve development and leadership of the curriculum along with assessment and progress systems and line management of the primary staffing team.

Applicants should have good knowledge and experience of working with disaffected pupils in a school or other alternative setting. An affinity for pupils with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties is an essential quality for this challenging but rewarding opportunity. Applicants should be resilient, have high expectations, and a sense of humour. You must be able to build positive relationships with our pupils and think outside of the box. You will be responsible for contributing to a small staffing team to ensure that the site runs smoothly. A growth mindset and positive ethos are essential characteristics that we are looking for.

Candidates must have access to a car and business insurance included.

Any interested applicant should contact the Head of School or Executive Headteacher to discuss the academy prior to making an application. Suitable candidates will be invited into site for an informal meeting to further explore the role.

Please see the attached Application pack including a Welcome from The Executive Head Teacher and more information about Esteem South Academy and Esteem MAT.

Benefits Include:

- Teacher's Pension Scheme / LGPS Pension Scheme (16.6% employer contributions)

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
